1 God's faithful Promise let me praise,
On which I still rely:
In God I trust; and, trusting Him,
The Arm of Flesh defy.

2 I'll trust thy Word—and so despse
The Force, that Man can raise:
To Thee, O God, my Vows are due;
To Thee I'll render Praise.

3 Thou hast retriev'd my Soul from Death;
And Thou wilt still secure
The Life Thou hat so oft preserv'd;
And make my Footsteps sure.

4 That, thus protected by thy Pow'r,
I may this Light enjoy;
And in the Service of my God
My lengthen'd Days employ.
